Welcome to DIY on the Cheap

Hi,

We are Two Moms & A Truck. Just two suburban moms happily raising our kids, keeping house, and doing all the things that moms do.  We are also both savvy, smart, and creative women.  There isn't anything the two of us can't handle.  Together with a truck we can tackle a variety of projects!

Tricia is our designer diva.  Anything she sees she can morph into an amazing creation.  She is constantly designing something wonderful that has her friends saying 'OHHH, I want one!!'.

Kellie wears our builder hat.  Anything she sees she says 'I can make that!'  She likes to build and create original items.  She also loves to paint as her creative outlet.

Like all moms we are BUSY!  We find random bits of down-time when we focus on the creative aspects of our lives that fire us up!  We've had enough of our friends ask us, "How did you do that?  I can't do that!  I want one!" for us to realize we do have a special talent.

Sure, we could explain how to go to a boutique, buy an expensive item and put it in your home.  Where is the challenge in that?  Lets make this fun and show people how to do things with little or no money.  Homes are meant to be an expression of us....cookie cutter decor is so not fun!

Are you drooling for a $20 fancy tassel to use at Christmas but can't justify the cost? Perhaps longing for a custom tile topped patio table but don't wanna fork out the dough? How would you like to create them with little or no money in your spare moments?

Enter Two Moms And A Truck....we are here to show you the way....the messes, the glorious results, the hideous "oops!" and all the fun we have along the way doing it together as best friends (in the midst of potty training, dusting, diapers, laundry and all the glamor of motherhood).

Check back weekly as we add the messes projects we've created!
